Leeds Postcards

new card out soon...

Very important and true

So moving...thank you Greta

Brexit might be painful but it HAS woken people up to voting in the EU elections - this is what happened 5 years ago at the last European elections: Ukip won the most UK seats, securing 24, while Labour won 20 and the Tories 19.
